TVNZ today announced a brand overhaul in which it will abandon more than 40 years of history to rename TV One to TVNZ 1.
It will also see TV2 renamed TVNZ 2 and One News to become 1 News.
The New Zealand public has had a couple of hours since the news broke to respond to the change, and the general consensus seems to be: no one cares.
Like one commenter said on Facebook: "It's always been channel one, channel 2 etc in my house and will never change. Nobody is going to refer to it as TVNZ 1, 2. Who would say that?"
And those that do care, aren't happy, with many concerned about how much this rebrand will cost tax payers.
